About the Festival
The Downtown Melbourne Food and Wine Festival is held in Historic Melbourne, Florida each November to highlight the local community and charm. Visitors to the Festival will experience a culinary adventure while listening to live music and taking in a host of other entertainment. Tickets are required to participate in the festival and sample the food, wine, spirits, and beer, however, Downtown Melbourne is open to non-ticket holders to visit the local restaurants, entertainment, and shops during the event.
Parking is limited for this event. We encourage you to rideshare or stay in one of our partner hotels at a special rate.
If you are interested in restaurant, wine, spirit, or beer vendor space or sponsorship, please email foodandwine@downtownmelbourne.com.
